I can't help it.
Look how there are no track in front of the wheels or behind the wheels.
This was staged. Look at the boot prints behind the wheel and how the whole area looks swept.
This is from their official site.
genki desuka?
WRONG. Kapton tape. Masking tape will outgas and deteriorate. It (kapton) is the duct tape of the aerospace/satellite industry. heheheh
And yes, it will look like crap because it is MLI (Multi Layer Insulation). It is not as easy to install as you think. Anything greater than 5 layer MLI is the *****iest material to work with. The MLI nowadays looks better since we have better attachment methods (velcro) better cutting methods and the outer black surface is not painted on. We also have aluminum ground straps covered by the MLI instead of having the Aluminum tape running outside.
As for the moon, I've heard so many arguments for and against i'm just going to leave it for you guys to discuss.
Sorry.. Had to be an aerospace **** here.
